You say that you're poor
But come on
You're not that poor, honey
Just take a good look around you
You're not that poor
You say that it's bad
But come on
It's not that bad, honey
I know you're feeling sad and blue
But you gotta give it a shot
You say that it's bad
But it's not, it's not that bad

You say that you're old
But come on
You're not that old, honey
I've said more goodbye's in my life
Than I have said hello's
And I swear by the seeds
That I gather these trees
You're not that old.

Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on

You say that you're tired
But come on
You're not that tired, honey
Your whole life has been a race
Between a pillow
And a pretty soft place
You say that you're tired
You are not that tired

Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on

You say that you're sad
But come on (come on)
You're not that sad, honey
Just look at all the friends that you have
You can't be that sad
You say that you're poor
But come on (come on)
You're not that poor, honey
Just take a good look around you
At all the things you've got
You say that you're poor
But you're not, you're not that poor

Yeah, but you're not
You're not that poor
